Who doesn’t love a Grey Cardigan?

When deciding what to wear with a gray cardigan, it is helpful to think of the color gray as a neutral and not a color.  A neutral is a basic color that you can marry with practically any color you wish. Neutrals such as cream, white, and black are used as a backdrop to color. Once you wrap your mind around this concept, dressing up that gray cardigan will be easier than you think.
The first rule in deciding what to wear with a gray cardigan is not to over think it. Simply go to your closet and pick out some of your favorite shirts. Some may be button down, or you may choose a turtleneck tee shirt. Try them on and see how it looks.
If you want to dress up a gray cardigan, think about what goes well with gray. What colors make gray? You may want to try a black pair of trousers and a white t-shirt . Use an accessory like a smart necklace.
When dressing down a gray cardigan, think in terms of subtle colors, like light blue or medium washed-out green. Give a small plaid shirt a try. Wear a medium wash blue jean. Leave the cardigan unbuttoned to showcase a really cool rustic belt. Wear a  skulls wide scarf and a white skinny jeans. Items picked from my Etsy Shop.

A Sunday On The Mountain

To start in a good way the new year, I decided with my boyfriend, my sister and her husband, to make a trip to the mountains. The place is called "Tre Cime Di Lavaredo" and it was great to enjoy nature away from city noise. The cold was intense as you can see from our clothes :) I look like Eva Kant dressed all in black, almost unrecognizable ;). 
After a walk of several hours we enjoyed a long dinner in a nice  restaurant, good food, good wine and good smiles!

Brown like a sweet chocolate!


At first brown may seem less sophisticated & elegant than black. If you look on a color wheel, you won't even see brown, but recently I discovered the glory of brown color. 
I like accessorise chocolate brown with a cream color for good light/dark contrast whilst keeping the overall palette warm and rich, but It's easy to pair brown with most any color.
The saying has been that brown is the new black. Brown is a neutral color but it's still warm. 
Mix shades. Your work wardrobe is probably pretty neutral. You may even want things to match so if you aren't a morning person you can stumble out of bed & randomly grab things from the closet. To keep your wardrobe from being boring mix amber, butterscotch & chocolate brown.
Since brown is so popular add in textures so that your clothes don't look like everyone else's.
Experiment with layers! Pair some chocolate colored pants with a sky blue top and denim jacket. Mix and match to find the best combination for any occasions.
